Tom Brady, a notable alum of the University of Michigan, has sent a supportive message to the No. 1-ranked Wolverines ahead of their Rose Bowl clash against the No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide. Brady, who played with the Michigan Wolverines before his successful NFL career, encouraged the team to make it feel like a home game in Ann Arbor.
Brady reminisced about Michigan’s victory over Alabama in the 2000 Orange Bowl and expressed confidence that they could achieve a similar feat in the upcoming Rose Bowl. The 2023 matchup promises to be intriguing, given the similarities between the two programs.
During his message, Brady proudly displayed his “Michigan vs Everybody” yellow wristband, showcasing his allegiance to his alma mater. However, it was Brady’s watch that caught the attention – a 2012 Richard Mille RM 052 Tourbillion Skull Titanium, initially valued at $2,000.
